Really need help.Stucked. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was on Neat Rom and flashed Apolo kernel with twrp recovery.But twrp couldn't mount neither of my sd cards.Therefore I tried to install cwm recovery with Rom manager and it seemed succesful but on reboot the phone stucked on "Samsung Galaxy S2" logo.I tried to flash some kernel or rom with Odin but Odin doesn't see my device.I don't have Kies installed and I tried different drivers.The PC kinda see my device and installs the drivers but that's it.I tried different usb ports,different Odin and the usb jig or at least what I understood what it was. I'm stucked and really don't know how to proceed.Thanks for the help.

That really cracked me up! I vaguely recall it was said in some thread long ago, maybe even more than once, to never, ever (did I mention never?) use ROM Manager to flash CWM onto S2...

Well, that's a common joke so no credit to myself.

[HELP]CM9-RC1 bricked my phone (galaxy2)

Hello Sirs,
Today I was about to flash the long awaited CM9-RC1 on my Samsung Galaxy S2 device with ROM Manager. After downloading it with Rom Manager I checked the three options:
Wipe Factory/Reset
Wipe Dalvik
Backup Device
Phone reboots and screen turns black. I waited for a good 15 minutes yet nothing happens. I popped the battery out and tried to fire it up again but now it wont start properly. It will be detected by computer as a "Unrecognized Device" only. The phone shows the Samsung logo + the flashcounter warning I assume? (Yellow triangle with exclamation mark.).
I cant access recovery-mode (clockworkmod) the only thing I am able to access is "Downloading Mode" but the device remains "Unrecognized Device" by computer. I did a little research about this problem - I only found some tips on changing cables/clean usb-port. None of which worked out to any advantage. I cant access the phone with adb either, and USB Debugging is not enabled as far as I know.
Odin nor Heimdall wont recognize the phone.
Downloading Mode
Code:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-i9100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES (2 Counts)
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
Previously installed on the phone was 20120624-CM9-NIGHTLY along with Siyah Kernel SGS2 v3.3.2.
Worth to mention is that this happened to two phones at the same time. My brother also flashed his today and got the same result. Also with Siyah kernel as mentioned above.
I've tried 4 different USB-cables, and two different Windows 7 computer. Also I've reinstalled one of the computers to try a little more. No success.
This tells me that there is something with the Siyah kernel that borks the phone somehow. Yet it seems possible to fix it since I can access the "Downloading Mode". Dont you think? Anyone with similiar issues and maybe have a solution for this?
And if there is no software solution to this is it possible that a USB-JIG would sort this out?
Sincerely,
Your problem is likely rom manager instead of siyah kernel or otherwise. Rom Manager does not work properly on our phone and is known to cause problems when installing things with it. Did you install drivers with the other computers you tried?
Went through this today too. My fault for using Siyah
Don't freak out, just grab Odin 1.85, and flash the noob-proof build available in the Discussion thread from Download Mode.
Your data will be wiped btw. A safer way would be to flash the Recovery via Odin, and once in recovery, reflash CM9.
The lesson of the story is to not use Siyah, as it's not supported under CM9

Well I am kinda freaking out since the device keeps showing up as "Unrecognized Device"! So I am not able to flash anything since it doesnt show up anywhere. I cant do anything to touch the phones software. Its just b0rked I guess.
I actually have the same problem with a S2 LTE which suffered from the same symptoms as stated above. Im starting to suspect maybe a crappy USB cable is the underlying reason for this, causing the usbport on the phone to fry or something.
Did you install drivers with the other computers you tried? Yes sir I installed the proper drivers there aswell.
I tried flashing the latest RC of cm9 and it went well even though i have siyah as the kernel. You shouldn't have flashed through rom manager. I flashed it through recovery

I hate ROM Manager. Is some app that I will never trust. The only purpose of ROM Manager: money, and placebo [you think it's the easiest way to flash stuff]. Can't find out why they put this in the ROM. At least they could make some OTA download. What is the Software update for at settings? Don't know...
ROM manager is crap. Never use it. That is what caused the issue. I am using CM9 based ROM with Siyah without any problem.

So what are you suggesting I should use instead? I'm hoping to return
the phone in topic when ive jigged it and demand a new one since there is still warranty hehe.
Don't use Rom Manager with kernels which have CWM/CWRecovery I.E. Siyah, CWM is more than capable of doing all the flashing/backups/restores/etc you need. If you end up using CM9 & Siyah again, make sure you freeze Rom Manager with TI or similar.

So the weirdest of things just happened. I left the phone discharging with the download mode active during the night. Today I bought a new phone (4100SEK /$585USD) and I thought maybe, just maybe it works now. I put the device in Download Mode and now popped it into the computer with the same cable as yesterday. And there it was "Device installed successfully!". Holy ****. Fired up Odin v1.85 and just pushed that damn recovery image onto the phone and bam! Rebooting, works like a charm. Now thats just f**king unbeliveable. But of course this wouldnt have happened if I DIDNT buy a totally new phone. The irony.
Moderator you may close this thread and save it for future reading.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 Wont Boot..

Hey guys,
I need some expertise on this, I tried looking up my exact problem but I couldn't find any real help so here I am. I just recently upgraded to ICS and all went well. Then I decided to root with Siyah kernel with ODIN and all was good. My problem is that when I tried to do the ROM backup with ROM manager it didn't boot back up and now every time I try to boot it up it goes to the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100 screen... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got it working perfect now with the tremendous help from Neeraj a fellow user on xda . I appreciate your input on my problem a lot man.:good:
Edit: We downloaded with this stock firmware: I777UCLE5_I777ATTLE5_I777UCLE5_HOME.tar.md5 from the program (Check Fus Downloader 2.1) and flashed the ROM with Odin. I'm pretty sure that's what we did anyway.

If flashing an I777 firmware fixed your problem, what in the world are you doing in the I9100 forums instead of the I777 forums in the first place?

My windows 7 doesnt recognize my phone. so no odin.
any help ?
You won't be fixing it without Odin with no recovery. Go thru the following list on your PC, and if you still can't get Odin working, try another PC. If you still can't get Odin working on another PC, user error somewhere along the way (will be impossible for anyone here to say what because we're not there with you), which means service centre job.
*Must run Odin as administrator in Windoze.
*Ensure Kies & it's processes aren't running in Windoze task manager. Kill them if they are.
*Try different USB ports; you must be using a 'powered' or mainboard port.
*Try different USB cables (particularly the cable that came with the phone if you're not using it now)
*Try different versions of Odin (search on here/Google)
*Uninstall Kies, reboot, redownload & reinstall it, reboot, try the flash again. Also run Windoze Update.
*Check the rom/kernel you download for corruption. Programs like 7Zip, IZarc, WinRar, etc will allow you to 'test' the rom file you download. If there are any errors/any of the files fail the test, bad download. Try again/try downloading with a different internet connection if it keeps happening.

Rooting Galaxy S2 GT-i9100?

Guys, is there any chance of rooting the phone without flash with odin or from the mobile odin?
Serve unlock root for ICS 4.0.3?
From already thank you very much.
PS: Sorry for my English is not very good
Look at the PhilZ-CWM6 custom kernel. It can be flashed in stock recovery and includes SuperSU, root, ClockworkMod Recovery and Busybox.
It is pure stock based, and doesn't have MMC brickbug.
Thanks for responding! But there would be some way that only makes you root, without installing a modified kernel and without CWM? is that I want nothing more root access

You're wrong pal, using the first method will only root your phone, no cwm nor custom kernel. its a single file u flash through stock recovery that gives you root and busybox, nothing else.
Thanks friend! Now I see it, I do not set it up yet because there is no custom rom, just want root : D

Try flashing a custom kernel through Odin on your PC. Plenty of guides on here and Google. That way you can flash cm through recovery. Keep an eye out for the kernel bug related to 4.0.4. Again lots of documentation on that too.

There is ALWAYS a risk when doing anything to your device. The level of risk is down to what you are doing and what state the battery is in etc.
As long at the rooted kernel you are flashing is compatible with the current firmware then all SHOULD be fine.

Stuck in bootloop
Hi,
So, this is what happened
I have a galaxy SII gt-i9100, About 5 months ago I rooted it and installed the galaxy nexus update to android 4.0.4. and everything was ok except it wasn't showing me the option to transfer via blue tooth (but that didn't bother me much). These were the things I used
1. GT-I9100_ClockworkMod-Recovery_4.0.1.4
2. Odin3 v1.83
3. GT-I9100_XWKI8_insecure
4. GT-I9100_XWKI8_original
Now, yesterday I a friend had galaxy S II i9100P and he updated the firmware using kies and it had working blue tooth. I thought ok let's change it to that and my blue tooth might work also. I was at work and I (in a hurry) tried rooting it with only Odin. No backup, No Clockwork :laugh: nothing. ( and "Now it's stuck at the startup screen. I can go to download mode and recovery mode but it has samusg recovery not clockwork. I don't know what to do and in need of help. I'd really appreciate a quick response. (hoping to get atleast the mass data back )
These were the only 2 things used.
1. Odin3 v1.83
2. I9100JPLPH_I9100OJPLPF_PAK

ok, the galaxy nexus update? you mean Jelly Bean or Supernexus / chamaleon?
I think that you've installed a stock ROM over a custom ROM and that's why you are stucked at the logo.
read a little bit about flashing because you are up for it.
Learn about SD card data when flashing and follow a tutorial to flash stock ICS 4.0.3 via odin thru Download mode.
Also make sure to flash a safe kernel so you wont get the brick bug (see warning post sticked in the general section).
I don't know what to put here...any ideas?

Need help- yellow triangle/flashing stock rom

hate to admit it, but i need help
my aim is to get to stock jb.
to get there, i wanted to first install cwm, so that i could make a nandroid backup.
i rooted it easily enough, but discovered i hadnt got cwm (i havent done this in a while, last time i did was on a htc desire, and the methods were different).
so i then found a guide for the i9100 (my model) to get cwm.
i downloaded odin and the cwm file, and, selected pda in odin, selected the file, and flashed. odin did its thing, and said successful, but on turning on the phone i just get 'samsung galaxy s2' with a yellow triangle.
it wont boot past that.
it wont boot into recovery now, but i can get into download mode.
i have downloaded the spanish JB firmware from sammobile (I9100XWLSD_I9100FOPLS4_FOP), but inside the zip there is only I9100XWLSD_I9100FOPLS4_I9100XXLS8_HOME.tar.md5
i thought thered be other files?
would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction.
im currently still at the yellow triangle (after flashing cwm), i dont want to do anything yet, as i dont want to cause any damage.
thanks
Just boot into odin and flash the JB rom via PDA section of ODIN. Then flash Siyah v6 beta 4 again via PDA section.
Once rom has booted install and use Triangle Away to remove yellow triangle.
done, and all is good.
thanks
ok, all was going well until tonight.
the phone turned off, and would not turn on again.
it just gets stuck at the samsung logo.
flashed stock rom with odin- no change.
flashed siyah kernel with odin, it now gets passed the samsung logo, but sticks at the siyah logo.
i can boot to download mode, but not recovery mode.
any help would be appreciated.

I broke something AKA GOD DAMNIT

So today I bought Galaxy ace after having galaxy 5, which I rooted and flashed a ton of times. I picked this phone up, found a cm7 rom, tried to install it. It didn't work, it showed me errors ( I learned that you need to delete some code somewhere in the .zip file ). I tried again. It installed correctly but I couldn't boot normally, it was stuck on the starting screen. OK I thought, it could be normal, I'll just reinstall it. I did that and guess what. NOTHING. I have no idea what to do, I tried flashing with odin, but odin 4.[something] didn't even detect it and odin3 3.07 detected them but was stuck on SetupConnection... At that moment I lost hope.
How do I fix this mess

That is for S5830 not S5830i.
As for clockwork mod, its a temporary one so you will have to flash cwm everytime you need to use it.

yes, this is the rom for s5830i but still has bugs listed in the thread like bluetooth not working etc...
for flashing this, first flash hell_lock kernel, search in development thread..
for more info go to CM7 discussion thread in general section!
